FREEPORT — On Friday, Oct. 13, Pet Supplies Plus opens at 1866 S West Ave, Freeport. The store is a part of the redevelopment of The Meadows Shopping Center with the recent additions of Marshalls and Five Below stores along with existing businesses like Maurices, Hibbetts Sports and Anytime Fitness. Furthermore, Anytime Fitness just completed a recent renovation, which included new equipment and expansion.
The Pet Supplies Plus store will offer local pet parents a hassle-free way to find better food, toys and supplies for their pets, while saving them money and celebrating the fun of pet ownership. In addition, the store will offer amenities such as a full-service grooming salon, self-serve pet wash stations, live animals and more.
To welcome the community, Pet Supplies Plus in Freeport will host a weekend-long Grand Opening Event. Beginning on Saturday, Oct. 28 and continuing through Sunday, Oct. 29, the new Pet Supplies Plus will offer free giveaways, sale prices and more.
The primary giveaways are as follows:
● Saturday, Oct. 28 and Sunday, Oct. 29 — Free nail trims both days, free food scoop with purchase of dog or cat food both days and free litter scoop with purchase of cat litter both days.
● Saturday, Oct. 28 only — Mystery scratch-off cards (between $5-$10).
● Sunday, Oct. 29 only — First 100 neighbors receive one free small bag of Redford Naturals dog or cat food.
Since the Grand Opening Event is on Halloween weekend, the store will have a Halloween Photo Station for pictures with the family, including pets, which will be uploaded to the store’s social media pages for neighbors to download for free at their leisure. Also, there will be a “Trick or Treat” in store where the Pet Supplies Plus team will have candy and tattoos for kids and a pet safe bakery item for any pet dressed up in costume.
In addition, neighbors will have an opportunity to win a $250 gift card by entering the location’s grand opening raffle. For more information and to enter, visit psprewards.com/Freeport or text the word “freeport” to 34653.
The store will offer Curbside Pickup, Delivery and Auto-Ship options for online product purchasing. These options will be active once the store opens for business. The Muddy Paws Grooming Salon within the Shopping Center has recently merged with the new Pet Supplies Plus store, and thus, a full-service salon is already available to book online for bath, haircut, skin/coat treatment and more. Local customers can visit
www.petsuppliesplus.com to select Freeport, IL as their store.
Pet Supplies Plus will offer pet parents a wide selection of natural pet foods, goods and pet services at low prices and focus on a unique, rich in-store experience for “neighbors” (the term Pet Supplies Plus uses for customer). Pet parents are always welcome (and encouraged) to shop with their pets at the store, where knowledgeable team members are on-site to answer questions, offer tips or just get on their hands and knees to play with pets who enter the store.
Pet Supplies Plus has a professional, experienced, and knowledgeable local team. Each team member is trained in the areas of natural and holistic foods and are able to answer a broad range of questions about dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and fish. Neighbors can also take advantage of the free Pet Supplies Plus Rewards Program, which offers members regular coupons on products they purchase frequently and monthly specials, resulting in big savings.
